    Gautam Dutta, Country Manager of ANSYS India said "This unique initiative, strongly focused on developing the scientists, technologists and engineers of the future, is the first of it's kind by ANSYS globally. We want to provide students in India with a platform to understand and experience the product development process. ANSYS India team has designed what I believe are challenging problems that students can collaboratively work on".

    Students can choose any of the twelve (12) projects as their main semester/quarter project listed from the approved list. The timeline for submission will be approximately three months from the date of final agreement. The individual student should take up this project independently or in a group of 2-3 and may involve his/her professors, if the student thinks so.

    Dr. Kaustubh Nande, Manager- Marketing said, "These projects provide students with an opportunity to demonstrate their experience and success in a tangible form that employers will appreciate.
